Yeah I think I like it here, it's different, but that isnt a bad thing. Also no idea where else to go. All other social media is off putting.

MODERATORS
Yes, currently Lemmy is the one. Trust Cafe WTS Social is small but has some interesting aspects.
It will be interesting to see how Lemmy scales and adapts to corporations joining, and also how GDPR compliance unfolds.
I use reddit.club
As of right now, I'm using Lemmy and just getting the feel for it. I think once some of the other larger 3rd party apps start getting released for Lemmy (Sync, Boost, etc.), it'll drive more people to creating an account and creating more communities. When compared to reddit, it's quite dead at the moment, but that can change once people start creating communities and participating. Time will tell if this is the "next reddit" or just the transitional phase.
I've been hearing a lot of buzz about Threads...
No, I'm here to stay I think. Reddit was the only social media I used, and this fills the need perfectly, in fact, in a lot of ways, better.
I joined multiple to have many feeds
I've signed up on tildes.net as well
So far I'm happy with it. There is less mindless content to scroll but the quality of content is much better.
It's a tough hole to fill. Lemmy is neat but still has a lot of growth to do.
I'm loving the fediverse so far, lemmy has been a breath of fresh air compared to reddit. Definitely not going anywhere!
